Episode notes

Welcome to the Avro Heritage Museum podcast. The museum is located near Manchester in the UK and you can find more details at https://www.avroheritagemuseum.co.uk/

We continue our chat with Trevor Jackson, a former Vulcan pilot who recalls his career after flying the Vulcan.

Trevor went on to train the members of the Manchester University Air Squadron on the De Havilland Chipmunk and the Scottish Aviation Bulldog.

From there Trevor is transferred to the Royal Navy’s Fleet Air Arm flying the Fairey Gannet, the largest aircraft operated by the Royal Navy off an aircraft carrier.

We hear details of some very perilous deck landings...

In 1981 Trevor retires from the RAF and we continue his story into civil aviation and the incredible story of how he became connected with the Avro Heritage Museum.

I’m delighted to welcome back Trevor Jackson to the Avro Heritage Museum Podcast…
